Légende

The Lord Chancellor receiving the Judges in the Middle Temple, [London], 1862. 'The Lord Chancellor's levée. On Monday week the Courts of Law met after the long vacation. According to custom, the Lord Chancellor [Richard Bethell] held a levée, which was attended by the Judges and the leading members of the Bar; but, instead of following the example of his predecessors and receiving them at his private residence, he met them in the hall of the Middle Temple, of which his Lordship is a Bencher. The Lord Mayor elect (Alderman Rose) was also presented to him. From the Middle Temple Hall the noble and learned Lord, together with his guests, went in procession to Westminster Hall to reopen the courts'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
